Laser welding of hidden T-joints, connecting the web-sheet through the face-sheet of the joint can provide advantages like increased lightweight potential in manufacturing sandwich structures with thin-walled cores. However, maintaining the correct positioning of the beam relative to the joint is challenging. A method to reduce the effort of positioning is using optical coherence tomography (OCT), that interferometrically measures the reflection distance inside of the keyhole during laser deep penetration welding. In this study new approaches for targeted data processing of the OCT-signal to automatically detect misalignments are presented. It is shown that considering multiple components from the inference pattern and the respective signal intensities improve the detection accuracy of misalignments.
Bitcoin's energy consumption and social costs in relation to its capacity as a settlement layer
(2021)
Bitcoin runs on energy. The decentralized network’s amount of energy consumption has resulted in multifaceted discussions about its efficiency and environmental impact. To put Bitcoin’s energy consumption into perspective, we propose to relate (a) the energy consumption in TWh and (b) resulting social costs in the form of carbon emissions to the Dollar value settled on the Bitcoin network. Both metrics allow to relate and quantify the capacity of Bitcoin as a settlement layer to the network’s energy consumption and resulting carbon missions, or social costs. We find that in early 2021 Bitcoin (a) settles between $2,333 and $7,555 for each Dollar spent on energy and (b) that, on average, a Dollar settled on the Bitcoin blockchain causes in social costs between 0.007% and 0.01%, depending on the estimated energy consumption converted into the costs of carbon emissions. These results help to assess the efficiency, cost and sustainability of Bitcoin and may allow a comparison of Bitcoin with existing settlement base layers such as Fedwire or gold
We propose a method for edge detection in images with multiplicative noise based on Ant Colony System (ACS). To adapt the Ant Colony System algorithm to multiplicative noise, global pheromone matrix is computed by the Coefficient of Variation. We carried out a performance comparison of the edge detection Ant Colony System algorithm among several techniques, the best results were found in the gradient and the coefficient of variation.
Pulsed laser processing of vacuum component surfaces is a promising method for electron cloud mitigation in particle accelerators. By generating a hierarchically structured surface, the escape probability of secondary electrons is reduced. The choice of laser treatment parameters – such as laser power, scanning speed and line distance – has an influence on the resulting surface morphology as well as on its performance. The impact of processing parameters on the surface properties of copper is investigated by Secondary Electron Yield (SEY) measurements, Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), ablation depth measurements in an optical microscope and particle release analysis. Independent of the laser wavelength (532nm and 1064nm), it was found that the surface morphology changes when varying the processing parameters. The ablation depth increases and the SEY reduces with increasing laser fluence. The final application requires the capability to treat tens of meters of vacuum pipes. The limiting factors of this type of surface treatment for the applicability in particle accelerators are discussed.
Long-range tertiary interactions between RNA tetraloops and their receptors stabilize the folding of ribosomal RNA and support the maturation of the ribosome. Here, we use FRET-assisted structure prediction to develop a structural model of the GAAA tetraloop receptor (TLR) interaction and its dynamics. We build the docked TLR de novo, label the RNA in silico and compute FRET histograms based on MD simulations. The predicted mean FRET efficiency is remarkably consistent with single-molecule experiments of the docked tetraloop. This hybrid approach of experiment and simulation will promote the elucidation of dynamic RNA tertiary contacts and accelerate the discovery of novel RNA and RNA-protein interactions as potential future drug targets.
We report on our recent progress in creating a new type of compact laser that uses thulium-based fiber CPA technology to emit a central wavelength of 2 μm. This laser can produce pulse energies of >100 μJ and an average power of >15 W. It is designed to be long-lasting and is built for industrial use, making it a great fit for integration into laser machines used for materials processing. These laser parameters are ideal for working with semiconductors like silicon, allowing for tasks such as micro-welding, cutting of filaments, dicing, bonding and more.
We demonstrate a thulium-based fiber amplifier delivering pulses tunable between <120fs and 2ps duration at up to 228 μJ of pulse energy at a center wavelength of 1940 nm and 500-kHz repetition rate. Due to the excellent long-term stability, this system proves the ability of this technology to be integrated into ultra-fast material processing machines.
Over the last two decades, the rapid advances in digitization methods put us on the fourth industrial era’s cusp. It is an era of connectivity and interactivity between various industrial processes that need a new, trusted environment to exchange and share information and data without relying on third parties. Blockchain technologies can provide such a trusted environment. This paper focuses on utilizing the blockchain with its characteristics to build machine-to-machine (M2M) communication and digital twin solutions. We propose a conceptual design for a system that uses smart contracts to construct digital twins for machines and products and executes manufacturing processes inside the blockchain. Our solution also employs the decentralized identifiers standard (DIDs) to provide self-sovereign digital identities for machines and products. To validate the approach and demonstrate its applicability, the paper presents an actual implementation of the proposed design to a simulated case study done with the help of Fischertechnik factory model.
As part of the research project Trusted Blockchains for the Open, Smart Energy Grid of the Future (tbiEnergy), one of the objectives is to investigate how a holistic blockchain approach for the realization of a local energy market could be accomplished and how corresponding hardware security mechanisms can be integrated. This paper provides an overview of the implemented prototype and describes the system and its processes.
Procurement processes are deemed to lack supporting digital technologies that raise efficiency and automation.
Blockchain solutions are piloted in procurement in order to offer a decentralized IT infrastructure covering these needs. This paper aims at identifying current blockchain approaches in the field of procurement and presenting affected business processes. In order to get an overview of the current state of the art, a systematic literature mapping is conducted.
Moreover, the out-comes are gathered and categorized in a classification scheme. Based on the analysis, systematic maps are presented to showcase relevant findings. Within the findings, several blockchain use cases in the field of procurement are identified and information about addressed challenges, utilized blockchain frameworks and affected business processes are extracted.
